Heritage Council Report 2000 Heritage Council of NSW Annual Report 1999 - 2000 FROM THE CHAIR In December 1999 I completed my first term as Chair of the Heritage Council. I was very pleased to agree to the Minister’s request to extend the appointment for a further two years. I have visited many more parts of the State in this role during the past year - places like Dubbo, Coolah, Cowra, Canowindra, Newcastle, Macquarie Marshes and Port Macquarie. I have also spoken to groups as diverse as the Royal Australian Historical Society, the Newcastle City Council and the National Trust. I have also attended launches and functions organised by the Heritage Office. And of course there have been many opportunities to spread the heritage message through the media. These visits, and the conversations and discussions that go with them, constantly reinforce my conviction that heritage does matter to most people. Most of us understand that we need to maintain and build on our connections with the past. Not for sentimental reasons, but because it is those connections that ground us in the here and now. We need them to make sense of our lives and our aspirations. I have been particularly pleased this year to see all the work in preparing the Heritage Curriculum Materials Project finally come to fruition with the distribution of these innovative units to all primary schools in the State. It is vital that cultural heritage forms a normal part of the school curriculum so that the rising generation of school students has a better understanding of the need to conserve and pass on to future generations the places and objects that are important to us. I congratulate the Department of Education and Training and the partnership with the Heritage Office that has produced these wonderful resources. The past year has seen great improvements to the NSW heritage system resulting from the Heritage Act amendments that came into effect in April 1999. In particular, the transparent process for listing places on the State Heritage Register has added significantly to the positive image of heritage and has aroused great interest in the community. I thank all those consultants, community groups and individuals who are working in such a focused way to respect and understand our legacy from the past. This is indeed a collaborative effort by the whole community. It is only through our joint endeavour that the new generation will itself have a legacy to pass on to their own children. Hazel Hawke Chair Heritage Council of New South Wales 1 REPORT OF THE HERITAGE COUNCIL OF NEW SOUTH WALES 2000 The Heritage Council of NSW is appointed by the NSW Government to: · provide advice on heritage matters to the Minister for Urban Affairs and Planning; · recommend items of State significance for listing on the State Heritage Register; · recommend the interim protection of potential heritage items so that an assessment of their significance can be made; · determine proposed changes to items on the State Heritage Register to retain the items’ heritage significance; and · advise the community on heritage issues. Its membership reflects a cross-section of community, government and conservation expertise. State Heritage Register The State Heritage Register is a list of heritage items of particular importance to the people of NSW. This may include items of particular importance to specific groups in the community, such as Aboriginal communities, religious groups or people with a common ethnic background. An item is listed on the Register when the Minister of Urban Affairs and Planning agrees to the Heritage Council’s recommendation that it is of State heritage significance. Once the item is listed major changes to the item require the Heritage Council’s approval. The Heritage Council’s role in considering applications for change is to endeavour to retain the item’s heritage significance. The Heritage Council decides the criteria that are used to assess items to be included on the Register and advises the community how they should be applied. Development Approvals The Heritage Council has three different functions in relation to development approvals: 2 1. Consent Authority Managing change to heritage items involves choices between those changes that are likely to retain their heritage significance and those which could diminish it. Recognising that unused items can quickly decay through neglect or vandalism, the Heritage Council aims to encourage new uses and practical changes. This maintains the continuing life of heritage items and places. The Heritage Council is the joint consent authority with the local council (and sometimes with other State agencies) for approving changes to items on the State Heritage Register. 2. Advice to Other Consent Authorities Other agencies, particularly local councils and the NSW Department of Urban Affairs and Planning, regularly refer matters to the Heritage Council. The Heritage Council’s advice on these matters is confined to heritage impacts and related issues, while recognising that the other authority may need to take other factors into account to achieve a practical solution. 3. Participation in Committees Heritage Council members are involved in public and private sector committees set up to find solutions for development proposals involving heritage items. The contribution of Heritage Council representatives is directed in such committees to retaining heritage significance and the effective continuing use of heritage places. The Heritage Council was established under the Heritage Act 1977. Under amendments to the Act in December 1996, membership increased from 12 to 15, providing for changes to the composition of the Council to broaden its scope and specialist skills. Twelve of the Council’s fifteen members are appointed by the Minister. In addition to the Chair, six of the appointed members are required to hold specialist knowledge or skills in any of the following: Aboriginal heritage building, development and property industries conservation of environmental heritage corporate promotion local government movable heritage natural heritage 3 property rights of citizens rural interests. A further five members are appointed by the Minister from nominees of the following organisations: Department of Urban Affairs & Planning Labor Council of NSW National Trust of Australia (NSW) Royal Australian Historical Society Royal Australian Institute of Architects (NSW) / Royal Australian Planning Institute (NSW). Three members are ex-officio: Director-General, National Parks & Wildlife Service Government Architect Director, Heritage Office. Members have been appointed for varying periods to allow for a staggered pattern of membership, and to provide continuity on matters dealt with by the Council over longer periods of time. A full list of members and their alternates or deputies appears on page six. The Heritage Council receives technical and administrative support from the Heritage Office. Hazel Hawke, Chair Hazel Hawke was appointed the third Chair of the Heritage Council in December 1996. Mrs Hawke is a well-known public figure with an active and lively interest in social issues and community affairs, particularly those involving women, children, the environment and the arts. She has been a member of the Board of the Australian Children’s Television Foundation since 1984. Mrs Hawke’s public relations skills are particularly important as the Heritage Council continues to broaden its outlook and create stronger relationships with the community. Since her appointment as Chair of the Heritage Council, she has made many successful visits across the state. Her most important role is to encourage the community to decide for themselves what heritage means to them and to become involved in helping to protect that heritage. Mrs Hawke’s appointment was extended in December 1999 for a further two years. Michael Collins, Deputy Chair 4 Michael Collins is the principal of Michael Collins and Associates, which specialises in providing property consultancy and land economics expertise to both the public and private sectors. He is a land economist, a registered valuer and a licensed real estate agent with extensive experience in property agency and real estate consulting. He is a Fellow of the Australian Institute of Valuers and Land Economists in both the valuation and land economy divisions, and is currently Vice-President of the Institute. He was appointed to the Heritage Council as an alternate member in 1996 and as a Member in 1997. He became Deputy Chair of the Council in January 1999. 5 Members of the Heritage Council Alternate Members Hazel Hawke Chair Michael Collins Helen Macfarlane (from 1 Deputy Chair December 1999) Jim Barrett Douglas Forrester (until 1 December 1999) Mark Davidson (from 1 December 1999) Professor Richard Mackay Alan Croker Elsa Atkin Graham Quint Representing the National Trust of Australia (NSW) Associate Professor Carol Liston (until 1 December 1999) Associate Professor Ian Representing the Royal Australian Historical Society Jack (until 1 December 1999) Associate Professor Ian Jack (from 1 December 1999) Dr Rosemary Annable Representing the Royal Australian Historical Society (from 1 December 1999) Louise Cox AM (until 1 December 1999) Mary-Lynne Taylor (until Representing the Royal Australian Institute of Architects 1 December 1999) (NSW Chapter) and the Royal Australian Planning Institute (NSW Division) Mary-Lynne Taylor (from 1 December 1999) Philip Thalis (from 1 Representing the Royal Australian Institute of Architects December 1999) (NSW Chapter) and

    Heritage Newsletter of the Blue Mountains Association of Cultural Heritage Organisations Inc March-April 2016 ISSUE 43 ISSN 2203-4366 Photographers – through their eyes There is a particular group of people to whom we, as people/organisations interested in our history, owe a huge dept. That is - the photographer. Be it the official or professional or private photographer, they provide us with pictures of both ourselves and our nation, at specific points in time. Their work is a historical record, showing the meaning and intensity of life at the time, and the current social dynamics that accompany them. The Macquarie Dictionary (1995) defines a photographer as a person who carries out “the art of producing images of objects on sensitized surfaces by the chemical action of light or of other forms of radiant energy, as x-rays, gamma rays, cosmic rays etc”. Obviously today in a more modern definition, this would be expanded to include digital experiences. However, for the recording of historical subjects, this former definition would ring true. Many photographers in the 19th and 20th centuries sought to celebrate the communities of people who work to lay the foundations of the country, to record specific events, covering both individual stories, and town and rural life. Incline, Kembla Coal, King Katoomba clouds, Phillips Chinese wool wasking, Kerry When we look at a photo, what are we looking at? Many photos bring us back again and again, and we see something different every time. The photographer may have sought to depict a particular event, person, but inadvertently has recorded a variety of other material, such as fashions and tools, landscapes and buildings, cultures and social customs, techniques and trades.

You know, no artist truly works alone, especially not when making something of this scale. Big thanks to my family - it’s been a group effort! Maia has contributed much of her furry costume making knowledge and made his nose. Kai has helped lug stuff and help me take the skin on and off multiple times (believe me - it’s heavy and like wrestling a dead bear) and of course my partner in crime as always is Adam, who had the engineering challenge of constructing the frame and making it all work! Bea Pierce - Jellybumps The Catbus ( Nekobasu) (referred to in the film as Neko no basu) is a character in the Studio Ghibli film My Neighbor Totoro, directed by Hayao Miyazaki. It is a large creature, depicted as a grinning, twelve legged cat with a hollow body that serves as a bus, complete with windows and seats coated with fur, and a large, bushy tail. The character's popularity has led to its use in a spinoff film, toys for children, an art car, and being featured in the Ghibli Museum, among other products and influences. A window stretches to become a door when a person would like to board it to travel. With its multiple caterpillar-like legs, it runs, flies, bounces, and hops across forests and lakes to reach its destination, making whole rice fields sway in its wake.

  • 'Quilled on the Cann': Alexander Hart, Scottish Cabinet Maker, Radical
    ‘QUILLED ON THE CANN’ ALEXANDER HART, SCOTTISH CABINET MAKER, RADICAL AND CONVICT John Hawkins A British Government at war with Revolutionary and Republican France was fully aware of the dangers of civil unrest amongst the working classes in Scotland for Thomas Paine’s Republican tract The Rights of Man was widely read by a particularly literate artisan class. The convict settlement at Botany Bay had already been the recipient of three ‘Scottish martyrs’, the Reverend Thomas Palmer, William Skirving and Thomas Muir, tried in 1793 for seeking an independent Scottish republic or democracy, thereby forcing the Scottish Radical movement underground. The onset of the Industrial Revolution, and the conclusion of the Napoleonic wars placed the Scottish weavers, the so called ‘aristocrats’ of labour, in a difficult position for as demand for cloth slumped their wages plummeted. As a result, the year 1819 saw a series of Radical protest meetings in west and central Scotland, where many thousands obeyed the order for a general strike, the first incidence of mass industrial action in Britain. The British Government employed spies to infiltrate these organisations, and British troops were aware of a Radical armed uprising under Andrew Hardie, a Glasgow weaver, who led a group of twenty five Radicals armed with pikes in the direction of the Carron ironworks, in the hope of gaining converts and more powerful weapons. They were joined at Condorrat by another group under John Baird, also a weaver, only to be intercepted at Bonnemuir, where after a fight twenty one Radicals were arrested and imprisoned in Stirling Castle.

  • AH374 Australian Art and Architecture
    AH374 Australian Art and Architecture The search for beauty, meaning and freedom in a harsh climate Boston University Sydney Centre Spring Semester 2015 Course Co-ordinator Peter Barnes [email protected] 0407 883 332 Course Description The course provides an introduction to the history of art and architectural practice in Australia. Australia is home to the world’s oldest continuing art tradition (indigenous Australian art) and one of the youngest national art traditions (encompassing Colonial art, modern art and the art of today). This rich and diverse history is full of fascinating characters and hard won aesthetic achievements. The lecture series is structured to introduce a number of key artists and their work, to place them in a historical context and to consider a range of themes (landscape, urbanism, abstraction, the noble savage, modernism, etc.) and issues (gender, power, freedom, identity, sexuality, autonomy, place etc.) prompted by the work. Course Format The course combines in-class lectures employing a variety of media with group discussions and a number of field trips. The aim is to provide students with a general understanding of a series of major achievements in Australian art and its social and geographic context. Students should also gain the skills and confidence to observe, describe and discuss works of art. Course Outline Week 1 Session 1 Introduction to Course Introduction to Topic a. Artists – The Port Jackson Painter, Joseph Lycett, Tommy McCrae, John Glover, Augustus Earle, Sydney Parkinson, Conrad Martens b. Readings – both readers are important short texts. It is compulsory to read them. They will be discussed in class and you will need to be prepared to contribute your thoughts and opinions.
